Allnic Audio H-6500 Phono Preamplifier | REVIEW

January 6, 2023 Marc Phillips 1

Last year it was Phono Preamplifier Central over here, with me being spoiled with one product after another while testing out the Brinkmann Taurus turntable. While I never quite picked a favorite—there were far too […]

ZYX Ultimate Airy X Cartridge | REVIEW

April 11, 2021 Marc Phillips 4

The first time I listened to the ZYX Ultimate Airy X cartridge it instantly reminded me of Scot Hull’s wife, Julia. I know that sounds strange, and even Scot’s probably thinking “WTF, Marc?” right about […]

LSA T-3 Turntable | REVIEW

February 21, 2021 Marc Phillips 4

  Maybe you’ve started to notice a certain theme in many of my reviews, so it won’t surprise you to hear that the LSA T-3 turntable (website) and I also go way back. We’re talking […]

January 29, 2021 Marc Phillips 3

Thorens TD-1601 Turntable | REVIEW

Goldring Ethos Phono Cartridge | REVIEW

September 18, 2020 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Goldring Ethos Phono Cartridge | REVIEW

I wasn’t supposed to review the Goldring Ethos phono cartridge. It merely hitched a ride with the Thorens TD-1601 turntable and arm combo that I have in for review. Anthony Chiarella, who represents both companies, […]

Luminous Audio Technology Prestige III Loudspeaker Cables | REVIEW

September 11, 2020 Marc Phillips 1

So I’m reviewing these Luminous Audio Technology Prestige III loudspeaker cables, ready to write down my impressions, and suddenly I remember that in my Raven Audio Soniquil cable review I spent all this time admonishing […]

Linear Tube Audio Z10 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

December 8, 2019 Marc Phillips 2

I originally intended for this review of the Linear Tube Audio Z10 integrated amplifier to be sort of a mini-review in conjunction with the Fern & Roby Raven loudspeakers since I was scheduled to only […]

Fern & Roby Raven Loudspeakers | REVIEW

October 19, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Fern & Roby Raven Loudspeakers | REVIEW

My adventures with the Fern & Roby Raven loudspeakers started last year, right before I left my house in Western New York to drive down to the Capital Audiofest in the suburbs of Washington DC. […]

Lyn Stanley, London With A Twist: Live at Bernie’s | The Vinyl Anachronist

July 27, 2019 Marc Phillips 2
